LaToya Jackson’s “Heart Don’t Lie”

I watched this video on a scratchy homemade BetaMax compilation tape hundreds of times. My brother must have taped it off of MTV the only time it aired. I mean, even during the insatiable Michael Jackson craze that propelled singles by Jermaine and even Rebbie Jackson to the charts, they couldn’t have bothered to play this strange, cutesy video more than a handful of times. Fun fact: this video is what the brain of a Jazzercise instructor dying of diabetes looks like.

From the middle of nowhere in the Pacific Northwest, I contribute to the Retroist, write for trivia publications, and blog about music in a humorous fashion. I feel about "Back to the Future" the way you feel about "Star Wars." Also, I'm married and have a child (sorry ladies, orphans).
